After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 2 - Bring Home

Dark lines...

Gu An looked at the person before him, feeling a sense of pathos.

Sorry, but I'm just an unlucky pawn easily discarded; calling me a dark line is an insult to dark lines.

Who's ever heard of a Third Level of Qi Refining dark line?

I'm just cannon fodder.

The "cheap woman" the other party spoke about was naturally the one who had poisoned him.

I was just unlucky back then, strolling around when I encountered two Immortals on a small path, one dressed in white and the other in blue, talking and laughing. Then when they were happily chatting, the blue-dressed Immortal stabbed the woman in white right in front of me.

It scared me silly.

I didn't understand what was happening at all.

Stab after stab, blood spilled everywhere.

The white-dressed Immortal tried to retaliate, but was firmly suppressed by the one in blue.

Eventually, the white-dressed one questioned why she chose this place to act, when there were people around.

The answer from the blue-dressed was that it's exactly because there were people that she acted; when there's no one around, one's guard is higher.

Gu An was stunned as he listened.

He thought she was going to kill him to silence him, but she gave him a poison pill instead.

Swallow it and you can live, but from then on, you can't control your own body.

Every time he recalled this scene, Gu An felt that the blue-dressed Immortal was not normal.

As for the antidote, it was basically impossible to find.

And that Immortal, he had heard of her; she seemed to be a powerful disciple of a Sect.

His exact identity, he did not know.

But he had to play the role of a pawn.

As for sayings like "My fate is in my own hands," he dared not even think about them.

Unless he wanted to die, then it really was up to him.

Putting aside these thoughts, Gu An looked at the woman in front of him and kindly said:

"Senior, your injuries are serious, how about resting at my place for a bit?"

Chu Meng looked coldly at Gu An and said:

"Sure, then will you carry me back?"

"Of course." Gu An nodded.

He then took a dagger from his body, approached her, and slid it past her under her shocked gaze.

Pu!

A scream ensued.

Four times in succession, Chu Meng looked at Gu An in horror.

At this moment, her tendons in both hands and feet were cut.

"Senior, please don't blame me, this is all for our safety," Gu An said as he put away the dagger.

Chu Meng gazed at Gu An, if stares could kill, he would have been hacked to pieces by her.

Thinking about our safety?

By disabling me, everyone gets safe?

"You're just as despicable as that vile woman," Chu Meng gritted her teeth and said.

Gu An didn't respond, but took out a sack.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Meng was somewhat stupefied.

Gu An hesitated a moment, stuffed her mouth with something, and then, under her horrified gaze, pulled the sack over her head.

With that, he carried her on his back and walked outside.

Chu Meng wanted to kill this man, how could she have ever suffered such indignity?

When did that vile woman arrange this dark line?

Gu An walked outside with the sack in plain sight.

Blood still seeped out from inside.

Arriving at the overseers' resting place, Gu An greeted them.

"Boss, did you catch another Demon Beast?" Yang Shi excitedly asked.

Gu An nodded and whispered, "Lucky strike, it should fetch some money. I'll clean it up when I get back; I'll let you taste some if there's any leftover."

The few people excitedly nodded; who doesn't love free food?

While Chu Meng heard people nearby and moved a bit, seemingly wanting to let people know there's a person inside the sack.

However, a woman's words outside chilled her heart, "This one is still alive this time? Not like the last one, nearly bursting the sack."

This person had begun preparations to capture her long ago?

So he dared to brazenly take her out?

Despicable!

This sack was specially prepared by Gu An to prevent anyone from detecting what Demon Beast was inside.

Of course, its outline was vague enough not to make one think it was a person.

"Yes, it should practically be dead by tonight," Gu An responded, then added, "You guys keep watch. The Sect will come to collect things after a while. Make sure there's enough."

"Don't worry boss, we've got this. You go do your thing," Yang Shi earnestly said.

Gu An nodded.

Nevertheless, he still felt somewhat emotional. Yang Shi seemed excellent, diligent, and respectful towards him.

Unfortunately, he was extremely dissatisfied with him behind his back.

It was understandable for him to defeat him and take over the lead position, but stepping on him was a bit too much.

Thinking back, he hadn't really bullied him.

Perhaps it was his unintended indifference that led Yang Shi to harbor other thoughts.

In such a case, Gu An was helpless.

He could no longer care about others as he was in danger himself.

Above him, he had a vicious woman poisoning him, and in the sack was an unknown Sect Disciple.

If the other party did not die, he didn't know if he could survive himself.

Life was tough.

Leaving the Spirit Tree Garden, Gu An arrived at Qingshui Garden by the Qingshui River. This place, unlike the outer workshop, had some defensive Arrays.

Only leaders like Sect managers could reside in the Spirit Tree Garden.

There were also some talented Loose Cultivators, but they had to hand over Spirit Stones.

He, on the other hand, didn't need to.

Arriving at the edge, Gu An entered the courtyard.

Others found it normal for him to carry a sack.

After all, he had been carrying it for several months.

He closed the courtyard gate, and what met his eyes was a shabby courtyard, a wooden table with a pork meat cleaver and some lingering blood scent.

It looked like a butcher's house.

He had prepared well in advance to capture this mission target.

Fortunately, today he succeeded and managed to bring the person out.

Entering the room, it was still a simple hall, kitchen on the left, bedroom and practice room on the right.

There was also a small courtyard behind.

It was what he had earned through twenty years of hard work.

That was better than many people.

It was normal for Yang Shi to want to seize it.

Placing down the sack, he then unfastened it and removed the gag from the other's mouth.

"How long have you planned to capture me?" Chu Meng took a deep breath and asked.

Gu An kindly asked, "Senior, would you like some tea?"

"No," Chu Meng responded gloomily, "Why are you working for that wretched woman?"

Gu An didn't explain, just said, "Senior, rest here for a few days. Someone should come to collect you."

"What benefit did that wretched woman offer you that you are willing to help her?" Chu Meng pressed.

The benefit, she gave me the choice to die, such a great benefit that I'm moved to work for her, Gu An sighed inwardly.

"Send me back, and I'll give you double the benefits. Not only that, but I can also help you conceal your identity so they can't find you.

And help you achieve Foundation Establishment. Is that enough?" Chu Meng stared at Gu An and asked.

Enough, indeed it's more than enough, but it sounds somewhat fake, and double the poison is not something I can enjoy, Gu An felt emotional internally.

Whether the person in front of him had Foundation Establishment was debatable, how could he promise to achieve it himself?

However, hiding his identity was quite tempting, too bad he was poisoned.

Of course, even without the poison, he wouldn't dare to agree in case she killed him afterwards.

That would be normal.

"Won't you talk? Have you become mute?" Chu Meng berated.

She had said so much without a single response from him.

"Do you have any Qi Refinement technique above the Third Level?" Gu An asked.

He actually didn't even have a technique; the original owner bought one from the Spirit Tree Garden Manager, but following that technique to advance to Qi Refining Fourth Layer resulted in death.

So Gu An dared not cultivate.

This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.

He planned to save money to buy one, but now perhaps he could ask the person in front of him.

Trying to raise his cultivation level might allow him to survive the struggles among these people.
